Big Brother 15 Hamsterwatch
SITE HELP & INFO
I don't care who wins, I'm just here for the cheap entertainment.. the cheaper, the better
This site is about the Big Brother 15 feeds and contains spoilers! It isn't necessarily thorough: it's what I catch and/or what interests me, and it isn't necessarily about who will win, who should win, who's cute or who's horrid. It's about watching hamsters: who's doing what and why. If they aren't entertaining, get rid of 'em! Thanks for encouraging my behavior. Your pal, dingo

BB15 FAQ
Feeds were streamed by CBS.

Call 877-211-4367 for account help including password reset or to cancel subscription.

CBS shows were Sundays 8pm, Wednesdays 8pm, eviction Thursdays 9pm (changed from Tuesdays, live Wednesdays, Sundays).

Big Brother After Dark was on TVGN for two hours every night starting at midnight/9pm BB time (1 hour later Thursdays), and is censored. Beginning July 19, BBAD runs three hours on Fridays.

Canada ran the TV episodes on Global, and After Dark on Slice, uncensored.

Jury will be nine members, with two finalists.

Weeks 1, 2, 3: The MVP (Elissa) selected the third nominee, privately, and she didn't have to tell anyone she was MVP. If the MVP's nominee won veto, MVP selected the replacement.

Weeks 4, 5, 6: The MVP vote was to name the third nominee directly. If the viewer pick was HOH or and HOH nominee, the third nominee spot went to next highest vote getter.

BB15 prizes are the same: $500k for the winner and $50k for 2nd place. Stipend for the others is $1,000 per week (up from $750), including pre-show hotel and jury sequester. Elissa gets more.

The habitat has 65 cameras (up 12) and 98 microphones (same).

The recorded in-house announcements are the voice of producer Don Wollman.

The feeds

The 24/7 live feeds are the real Big Brother 15 show and what differentiates it from all other reality shows. The feeds are available through a subscription. Details to get them will be posted here shortly. Please read the disclosures and agreements when you sign up. Subscriptions ordered through my links help me keep the site going, including free trials.

The feeds are blocked during competitions and ceremonies, when the hamsters sing, talk about production or friends/relatives who didn't sign a release, during the live show, and at various other times. It can be frustrating, but overall we still probably average more than 23 hours a day of feeds. Remember that the decision to block the feeds is made by the show's producers and control room personnel - SuperPass is only the provider.

Thievery

Please don't repost content from this or any other site without permission. Some folks think Big Brother sites are free-for-alls just waiting to copy & paste, but this is not the case. It's theft, plain and simple. This and all other sites about BB or any topic take a lot of effort to create. If you'd like to refer friends to something here, please use the "share" buttons at the top right of each page, or send them a link to the page rather than sending them the page. You wouldn't plagiarize a book - treat websites the same.

I watermark my screencaps because they take a lot of time & effort to make, from sorting & selecting to tweaking brightness, contrast, etc. as needed to make the very best caps I can. So while CBS, Our House Productions and Real Networks technically own or license various aspects of the Big Brother experience, my caps are my own.

DO NOT HOTLINK TO ANY IMAGES HERE! That includes avatars for message boards and embedded images on other websites.. it costs me money! Anyway, your cap won't show up for others - you'll only see it because it's in your browser's cache.

If you see my content reposted anywhere without credit and a link back, please ask the webmaster or admin of the site you see it on to remove it. If they don't, please let me know - many thanks in advance!

Twitter

See also Twitter 101 from my Big Brother 11 section.

I've been using Twitter to send live feed updates since Big Brother 8. You can get my updates to your cell phone by texting follow hamsterwatch to 40404 in USA, or 21212 in Canada. See Twitter.com for other countries' access numbers. You'll receive a response asking for a user name, and confirmation after you've done so. Alternately, you can sign up to follow me at my Twitter page, or add me to your follow list if you're already signed up. My Twitter username is @hamsterwatch.

If you have a smartphone, you can also use any of a number of Twitter apps from Twitter or third parties to configure and receive updates to your phone.

My latest Twitter messages will usually be shown on the top right of each page here on the site. You can see more of my updates at my Twitter page.

These updates are free but you may be charged by your cell service provider to receive text messages or to access Twitter apps so check your service plan. To stop receiving updates, text leave hamsterwatch to the same number as above, or "unfollow" me on my Twitter page. I can't remove you from my follow list: you must opt out.

Depending on what's going on in the habitat, I might send Twitter updates (tweets) at any hour, including overnight. You can temporarily turn cell phone updates off or on, or set times to block updates by completing your account at Twitter if you're only receiving my text updates. Twitter accounts are free and they don't sell or distribute phone numbers or email addresses.

If you're signed up but are not receiving my text alerts, log in to your Twitter account at www.twitter.com/yourusername, then go to my Twitter page at www.twitter.com/hamsterwatch. If it doesn't say you're following me, click Follow, then make sure it says device updates are on if you want updates to your phone. Alternately, if you want to stay on my list but not get my alerts on your phone, you can turn device updates off there.

If you Reply to my tweets, your replies will be seen by everyone who follows you and also follows me. I don't interact a lot on Twitter from my hamsterwatch account due to time constraints, however you can follow my personal Twitter account at @neonne for more interaction and chat on a wider array of topics than Big Brother.

MY TEXT UPDATES WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS so don't sign up for them if you want to wait for the CBS shows to see what happens. I can't promise to send every bit of news as soon as it happens but will do my best to send updates about nominations, evictions, competition outcomes, and so forth. I'll also keep you updated about endurance comps and other "big stuff" as it happens.

Chat help

Please read and abide the guidelines posted on the chat page.

If you're having problems registering or joining the chatroom, be sure you have Java installed. It's free and can be downloaded here. Also you may need to disable your pop-up blocker, especially to register or retrieve a lost password. Holding the Ctrl key while clicking either link will usually do the trick.

Right-click a user name in the room list to ignore that person. Please do not announce to the room when you've ignored someone as that defeats the purpose of the ignore function.

Click another chatroom to move to it. User names in the room list will show when that person is typing or when they are on Away status.

The chatroom is intuitive and easy to use. With the toolbar you can add emoticons, change font size, clear the chat screen, toggle timestamps, launch this help page, or log out.

Right-click anywhere in the chat area to access the toolbar commands, change the font face, or toggle audio.

Click another person's nick in the chat area to copy that nick to the typing area. When someone else types your nick, it will show in red to get your attention and may make a sound depending on your audio settings.

The chatroom has a copy/paste function but it doesn't always work properly.. check that what you've pasted is what you wanted before hitting Enter. Alternately you can also use Ctrl+c to copy and Ctrl+v to paste.

Please use the "screenname rule" when chatting: refer to people by their chat nick even if you know their real name, as they have chosen to use a nick instead.

Forum help

Please read and abide the guidelines posted in the forum as well as any board-specific guidelines. Follow the same common sense guidelines posted above for the chatroom.

You have to register to use the forum, and registration will be held only during pre-announced times due to massive spam problems. Watch my Twitter and/or Links of the Day on the sidebar to know when these open registrations will take place. If you'd like to register at other than an open registration period, send me a message on Twitter, Facebook, or hop into the chatroom - I'll be there most evenings.

Once you register, you'll have to respond to an email that your registration request generates before you can post - please check your spam folder if you don't receive it. If you have problems registering or receive "Access forbidden" messages during the registration process, let me know - preferably in the chatroom, or via Twitter or Facebook. Include your username, and I can activate your registration manually.

The forum is intuitive to use and works like most other message boards. You have a number of options to set up the way the boards, threads and so forth are displayed, according to your preferences. Instructions to do all these things are in the forum.

Contact

Unfortunately, I'm just not able to keep up with email during the season. If you need to contact me, please do so on Twitter, Facebook, or drop into the chatroom.

While I hugely appreciate the many nice emails and kind words I've received over the years, I just don't have the time to respond to them all when the season's underway. As much as I'd like to, I can't get involved in one-on-one exchanges about the hamsters or happenings on the feeds. Please use the chat and/or forum - that's what they're there for :)

I gladly add friends to my Facebook provided the requesting profile doesn't suggest spam will follow. I've pretty much let my my MySpace go dormant.
